I noticed that too.. posting short content is more like posting out of compliance to just merely post something. And admittedly, i have been doing that from day 1. Nobody informed us the minnows and you were right there were no stated rules about it. So now that explains the small payouts or no payouts at all.

Maybe if the information was properly disseminated we would have posted lengthy ones. I'll do try to post ONE now and check how it goes. To be honest, minnows are blind to this things. Im glad i stumbled into your article. Good for me, it got me interested to read. Thank you good sir.

Hope next time you share few secrets to standout or to become successful here in steemit without even paying bots to the services for you..
